Daniel - Desert Apostate
@hcexvangelical.bsky.social
Product Manager. Proud Papa. In love and married. Learning viticulture and oenology. Brewer. Ex-evangelical apostate. Returning to life in the Rio Grande valley.
My wife is not much of a flower person. She doesn't like the idea of gifts that die within a few days. However, my daughter loves flowers. Fortunately, they both love Legos. Compromise has been reached.

There's also the "coregasm" kind that happens when just trying to stay in shape, like when dealing with this asshole piece of equipment. Bad memories.

I can't even make a ham and turkey sandwich without reverting to line cook, or I'll die. As it is, my soul fractured a bit by not having frilly toothpicks.

Oh...I see the problem the GOP has with ibuprofen. It has the wrong skin color.

These are the Organ mountains near Las Cruces New Mexico where I live now. Me and the kiddo spend some quality time up there.

I have these again, and it just feels correct.

Line cook till the day I die.

Ignoring the cloudiness of the first few pulls since I will keg condition the vast majority of my ales till the day I die, a 50/50 base of Maris Otter and Munich malts and fermentation with Irish Ale yeast is a ménage à trois made in heaven. Fuggles, Northern Brewer, and Perle. Yummy.

Some homemade dry rub, good sauce made with a bit of Dr. Pepper and piñon coffee, and good gotdamn, this made some mighty fine plates of BBQ.

Probably the last one of these this season. Maybe one more time if November is mild.

Why file to be a write in candidate if you suck so bad you don't even vote for yourself?

My corner store was out of my usual flavor(s) for Monster so I had to get this thing.

Somebody at that company really said "I miss the sad flavor of powdered Tang"

Ultra Sunrise? More like "retired geriatric astronaut."

My local elections are very boring this time around. Doesn't matter. Voted for the guys who people before cops, fight against income inequality, and yes for money to schools. Are yours boring too? I don't care. Vote.
